<br/>If you want to rewrap Avid DNxHD encoded MXF videos to ProRes MOV to editing in FCP on Mac, this step-by-step guide will help you out in details, and show you the way to finish this within a few click.
<br/>
<br/><b>Question:</b> "How can I rewrap DNxHD MXF files into MOV files on a Mac to be used in FCP X or FCP 7? I know the windows version of ffmeg seems to be able to do it, but how about a mac? Any help answering this would be much appreciated."
<br/>
<br/><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNxHD_codec" target="_blank">Avid DNxHD</a>, which stands for "Digital Nonlinear Extensible High Definition", is a lossy high-definition video post-production codec engineered for multi-generation compositing with reduced storage and bandwidth requirements. It is an implementation of SMPTE VC-3 standard. DNxHD codec was developed by Avid Technology, Inc.
<br/>
<br/>For users of <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/vivian58/encode-hyper-deck-shuttle-2-mxf-to-mov-for-fcp-fce-imovie-avid-premiere-pro" target="_blank">Hyperdeck Shuttle 2</a>, <a href="http://camcordervideoshare.altervista.org/blog/transcode-blackmagic-cinema-camera-footage-to-prores/" target="_blank">Blackmagic cinema camera</a>, etc., mostly possibly they get compressed DNxHD MXF video files which are not native supported by many other player, or nonlinear editing programs on mac. Some other people assume that Davinci Resolve Lite is able to make DNxHD into quicktime mov, but it's more like a transcode proress with certain quality loss and longer working time. Besides, it's not suit for macbook users because the macbook video card doesn't work with Davinci Resolve.
<br/>
<br/>Hereby, you will need to get a powerful transform program and this is what we are going to introduce: <b><a href="http://www.pavtube.com/mxf-converter-mac/" target="_blank">Mac DNxHD MXF to ProRes Re-wrapper</a></b>. This program features in easy-to-use interface, working stability and quick rewrapping work flow. You can download a free trial version here without time limit.
